West Chicago Fit4Fall 5K
Healthy West Chicago organizes a community running event in West Chicago on September 19, 2026, with the start and finish at Reed-Keppler Park near 250 W National Street. The route uses a certified 5K course on the Illinois Prairie Path and includes a separate youth distance.
The event offers these distances:
- 5K Run/Walk
- 1 Mile Youth Run
Registration categories include adult and student entries and discounted resident rates. All 5K registrations include a race shirt and bib; the first 75 5K runners who pick up their registration package receive a swag bag. Families of four or more registering for the 5K receive a $5 discount off the total. Registrants must register by September 5 to be guaranteed a shirt and size. Race packets and shirts are available for pre-race pickup at the ARC Center and on race day at Reed-Keppler Park; packets will not be shipped.
Awards and finish items are provided onsite: trophies for overall male and female 5K winners, custom medals for 5K finishers, and finisher ribbons for the 1 Mile participants. Race day features health and wellness vendors, post-race refreshments, stretching and massage services, a raffle with local prizes, and event photos. All proceeds support Healthy West Chicago community programming. All registrations are final with no refunds, cancellations, or transfers.
